The PCVA compactor is cost effective and quick to install.

The PCVA compactor with integrated KNB binding units or SBH5 strapping units is a powerful solution.

The design gives a convenient access to the binding units and makes maintenance of vital parts easy.

The coil collecting is done on a pallet in vertical position and by so avoiding deep foundation pits for down-enders or other mechanisms in collecting station Coil shape is maintained round on the pallet until it has been allowed to cool down and stabilize Very little floor space is occupied since supporting steel structure is limited When continuous rolling (welding of billets) is used where no front or rear ends needs to be trimmed the vertical system with vertical compactor is preferred

SUNDCO-V/H combines the best of the two systems and gives a practical system suitable for most mills.

With a technology built upon over 40 years of know-how,

The SUNDCO CONCEPT has proven to be a art of handling system for smooth and gentle handling of coils.

Some of the major advantages with the SUNDCO CONCEPT are:

Low maitenance costs due to utilization of belt drive and no power chain. Simple and heavy construction devoid of sensitive components. Compactor equipped with wire binding heads KNB or strapping heads SBH5. A hook that can be orientated in any direction to suit the various working stations. Excellent hook stability in all directions. A top modern and space saving design.

Coil collecting station with distributor and easy down function.

A system that can handle coil weights up to 3000 kg.

East to extend due to standardization of conveyor sections.

The purpose of SUND BIRSTA handling system is to receive coils on empty hooks in the conveyor system coming from the loader and transport them to different working stations. The handling system is completely automatic, but different parts in the system can be operated manually.
